The TV landscape is way more crowded than it was even just a handful of years ago, and with every new streamer or cable network the chances that we ll all miss a show we could truly enjoy increase by so much that it s difficult to even put a number on it. The CW s
All American had been one series which had managed a small, dedicated group of fans, but didn t seem poised to really set the ratings on fire, despite it being given time to find an audience. That, however, changed in a major way when the teen drama hit Netflix, and now star Taye Diggs is talking about how the spike in popularity feels.
All American s Spencer James isn t the only one returning home this season. Billy Baker s return to South Crenshaw comes with its own set of baggage, including some history the audience will get to learn about for the first time as the season progresses. For Billy, it s about facing his past and attempting to set up a future. But it won t be easy.

Daniel continued: If you re just standing next to me and the phone s there, I just freeze up. I m so introverted, I don t know what to do.
Uncomfortable: Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, the 29-year-old said he doesn t like it when people just take out their phones and snap photos of him without asking
He hastened to add that one of the perks of fame is when younger fans mistake him for his character in All American. Most of the time it s fine, it s usually young children and it s really sweet. They think I m the character in real life, he said with a laugh.
Coop s music career is looking bright on
From the start, Bre-Z related to Coop. The Crenshaw teen who loves to rap – just like the actress who plays her – takes on other people s problems, going to huge lengths to make things better for the people around her. Going into the role, I saw the same level of empathy that I have in real life, she shares. Bringing music into Coop s storyline allows Bre-Z to connect to her character on a deeper level, artist to artist.
Coop has been through a lot while supporting her best friend Spencer James (Daniel Ezra) on his football journey, but going into season 3 it seems like it s her turn to stand in the spotlight. After navigating a dangerous situation with gangs in her neighborhood and beginning her rap career, season 2 ended with Coop going on an indie tour, taking a big step towards her musical dreams.
